What happens when an organisation decides to embrace cloud computing? What are the decisions they make and what do they learn from the experience? This silicon.com video series interviews key executives at Glasgow-based social enterprise Wise Group as to why the organisation has embraced the cloud and what benefits it has achieved as a result.

During its 28-year history, Wise Group has helped more than 30,000 people back into work. It also aims to help regenerate communities and create a fairer society by partnering with a range of organisations from the public, private and voluntary sectors.

In this first video, Wise Group CEO Laurie Russell, director of strategic planning Diane Greenlees and CIO Alan Lee-Bourke discuss how the needs of the organisation prompted a revamp of its technology infrastructure using cloud technology.
